New Lancet series blends social science with medicine to tackle global health inequities

Can doctors in California learn from a patient who was bounced from one specialist to another in Japan? Can clinicians in London take lessons from a patient seeking asylum while suffering a medical emergency at the U.S.-Mexico border? Can doctors treating refugees in Africa inform health policy around the world?

Most Americans still back early hepatitis B vaccination despite policy debate

On December 5, 2025, the Trump administration's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP), whose members were handpicked by Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary and vaccination critic Robert F. Kennedy Jr., is scheduled to determine whether it should recommend that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) change the recommendation in place since 1991 that newborns be vaccinated against hepatitis B.

$New targeted alpha therapy shows promise for patients with radioiodine-refractory thyroid cancer$

New targeted alpha therapy shows promise for patients with radioiodine-refractory thyroid cancer

A new targeted alpha therapy is showing promise for patients whose thyroid cancer no longer responds to radioactive iodine, the standard beta-emitting treatment. In a first-in-human study, investigators found that a single dose of the alpha-emitting radionuclide 211At (astatine) was both well-tolerated and effective, achieving disease control without molecularly targeted drugs.
